| WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. — The man suspected of attempting to assassinate former President Donald Trump last week left a note several months ago urging others to "finish the job" and offering $150,000 to anyone who managed to kill the Republican presidential candidate. Prosecutors said suspect Ryan Routh placed the chilling handwritten letter in a box containing tools and building materials left at the home of an unnamed associate. Addressed to "The World," the message denigrated Trump's moral character and faulted him for his policy toward Iran. "This was an assassination attempt on Donald Trump but I failed you. I tried my best and gave it all the gumption I could muster. It is up to you now to finish the job; and I will offer $150,000 to whomever can complete the job," Routh allegedly wrote in a portion of the letter prosecutors revealed in a court filing Monday morning, prior to a scheduled bail hearing for the suspect.
